New Year New Body New Attitude

Living with a healthy attitude and finding mental balance is key.  An important aspect of beauty involves finding the strength within yourself.  Part of being beautiful is living with a healthy mind, one that has positive thoughts and is filled with humor and confidence.  If you are sure of yourself, then others will be also. If you are kind to others, people will see this kindness, and recognize its beauty. Being attractive to others comes from a good mental balance, which can be attained by proper diet and exercise and not abusing yourself with harsh extremities, such as drugs and alcohol.

Because females invest so much time on beautification  such as makeup, clothes, hair, nails, perfume and jewelry, it makes sense to take the time to adorn your body by making it look and feel its absolute best. Your body is your own personal billboard through health, attractiveness and how others perceive you.  We all live in an environment where we judge each other and the hard truth is studies show better looking people receive more in life. More accolades, more attention, and  more consideration in their private and professional lives.  Not necessarily just because of their looks, but when you are fit, confident and self-assured, you display a certain strength and attractiveness to the world. Health and fitness will amplify this self-assurance, and confident people tend to be more successful and a joy to be around.  Additionally, a fit body is good for your overall health. When you look good, often times it is a reflection of your overall health. As you age, your body will start showing signs of deterioration, but there are many things you can do to combat this process so you will continue to stun (Shine) no matter what age!
If we compare our bodies to a car, we understand that it too must be maintained in order to operate at maximum efficiency. A car needs regular oil changes and to be cleaned and repaired, otherwise it will eventually break down. The more you stay on top of maintenance, the less has to be done and the better off you will be if you don’t let yourself go downhill. It is far easier to keep yourself fit than to get fit. But also remember that it’s never too late – if you haven’t taken care of yourself the way you wished you would have, there’s no better time than now to start.1920239_10154682540980241_9130307005510253720_n

Ardency Inn Modster Eyeliners are Amazing!!

IMG_0372

“The Ardency Inn Modster Eyeliner Trio Eyeliner pencils are among the best eyeliners I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. The Eyeliner Trio pack I got came with blue, black, and gold eyeliner pencils. When I first put it on, I noticed that the eyeliner has extremely rich pigmentations that really makes the eyeliner look really bold and kept the color and wear long lasting for extended periods of time. I ended up wearing my eyeliner all afternoon and all night and I noticed it looked nearly the same as when I first applied it. Plus, these eyeliners are waterproof which means you don’t have to worry about it smudging while you wear it. And on top of all this, each color can be coordinated to match your look or personal style. So if you would like bold, long wear, waterproof eyeliner, give Ardency Inn Modster Eyeliner Trio a chance!”

Ardency Innholiday kits are also available at ardencyinn.com!   Both eyeliner kits include exclusive colors that are not available for individual sale until spring 2015. I wouldn’t mind finding some Ardency Inn Modster Eyeliners in my stocking Santa!!!!

Fill your Stockings with Colorful and Fun Hair Accessories by Scunci

unnamed-14
Scunci Hair Accessories have been the number one leader in hair fashion and affordable hair accessories for over twenty years! From simple elastics to the latest technology of their no slip grip headbands, Scunci quality has always been the best in my eyes. You can always rely on Scunci to design a good product and more importantly a comfortable one!!!

I love the Scunci Everyday & Active Headwraps line. They are super comfy and don’t make my head sweat. I wear them when I work out, wash my face and when I garden. When I am having a bad hair day and I need to tame my hair, I just throw one on and in a flash my hair looks stylish! The performance and premium fabric makes them super comfortable for all head sizes and the elasticity last forever. I run 4 to 6 miles per day and always wear the Scunci Everyday & Active Headwraps to keep my hair away from my face. I cannot live without them! They don’t slide up or down on my head. They have a no slip grip so they actually stay in place and I can enjoy my run and not be focusing on my headband falling off! I throw them into my washing machine to wash them because I use them all the time and they still maintained their elasticity. Love them!!! Scunci Everyday & Active Headwraps come in assortment of pretty colors. Some are even designed to be reversible to match any outfit!

The Scunci Everyday & Active Hair Ties are also play a big part in my life! I rely on hair ties everyday, that is why I choose Scunci Everyday & Active Hair Ties. Not only do you get a generous amount of hair ties per package but they are damage free with no annoying metal pieces in them to pull out your hair. They are thick so they don’t snap like thinner elastics do. If Scunci Everyday & Active Hair Ties can hold my thick hair while I run, jump rope, and crossfit train, they can hold anyone’s hair firmly in place! They are strong and pretty!!! Plus some of the Everyday & Active Hair Ties have light reflecting patterns. They look like the reflects on a bike light or guide post you see along the road. Super strong but very gentle on my hair. They come in a variety of pretty colors! My favorite hair ties are the No-Slip Flat Reflective/Ponytailers. With the flat design and no slip technology, they create a bold statement – not your basic kid elastic!

They are so comfortable and good looking!No matter how tough my workout gets or my daily life, I know I can count on Scunci Hair Accessories to do the job right! I love them so much that I am filling my daughter’s stocking and attaching them to the bows of my nieces gifts!   scunci hair accessories can be found in mist retail and drugstores nationwide

Awaken Your Face with Immortal 3-in-1 Facial Glaze

Immortal 3-in-1 Facial Glaze

Make-up is a powerful tool for women to express themselves, enhance their natural beauty and/or boost self-confidence. Having the time to apply make-up is always a concern, never mind the talent because no one wants to look like a circus clown. As for me, I don’t have the time, the patience or the skill to apply. I never had a good relationship with make-up so I just gave up. Exploiting the naked face for a run, a hike, or at the gym is fine. Being dressed in the white collar environment, communicating with the public, I feel you need to look polished and finished. Without make-up, your outfit, shoes, pocketbook, and hair style seems undone. I was searching for a convenient, practical compact make-up that could add a pretty lip color, a sweep tint to my cheeks and a shadow in the socket above my eye, all in one, for a fresh glow that is pleasing, cheerful and sexy! Glen Badessa, president and creator of Immortal Cosmetics, carefully researched women that were juggling a career, a family and a household who want to have a polished face without the fuss of multiple cosmetics, brushes or applicators. Yes, we want it all and we want to look good trying! The 3-in-1 Facial Glaze by Immortal Cosmetics is an easy, quick, effective way to transform a tired face to a refreshed look in minutes! When I first applied the 3-in-1, I was impressed at how it glided on my skin and was comfortable to wear. I always frowned on make-up that was cakey or powdery which made it challenging for me to apply it well. I hate the heavy feeling of many brands of make-up on my face. We will not even discuss how the powder make-up settles into the fine lines and wrinkles which makes you look older and aggregates around dry skin for a not so pretty outcome.

 IMG_3957

The 3-in-1 Facial Glaze made my face feel silky, luxurious, and smooth adding a radiant glow evenly. It comes in three gorgeous shades: Golden Pink – a fresh, bright sheer color with gold undertones. Great for light skin and blondes. Mauve – a deeper sheer pink tone for medium to dark complexions. And my favorite Nu-Bronze – a shimmery sheer warm bronze tone for olive and dark complexions which is like capturing the radiant glow of the sun without ever catching a ray! The 3 glaze colors can be worn separately or together wearing the bronze on the eyes, mauve on your cheeks and the golden pink on your lips! The 3-in-1 Facial Glaze lets me enjoy my time without feeling the need to babysit my face with constant touch-ups! A make- up that lasts all day or night without fading, melting, or setting into fine lines is a keeper! An eye shadow, lip color, and blush all in one product has become essential for every on the go woman revealing a mood or an interior life! The functional, practical compact size is built to go places – no one wants to lug around their entire make-up case. The 3-in-1 Facial Glaze by Immortal Cosmetics is travel-friendly for a pocket, purse, desk drawer, or car compartment. Everyone can wear the 3-in-1 Facial Glaze because the sheerness of the product works with your own skin tone to customize your own individual look. A perfect holiday gift for all your friends and family! I cannot live without the 3-in-1 Facial Glaze, it made my life easier and prettier! Immortal 3-in-1 Facial Glazes are available online at immortalcosmetics.com/facial-glaze

unnamed-6

If you are looking for a beautiful, easy to use gift bag that will reduce waste, eco-friendly which is an alternative to using wrapping paper (save a tree), and simply stylish. Consider Gratitude Gift Bags. No need for tape, scissors, tissue or bows.  Gratitude Gift Bags stand out from all the rest of the hundredths of other gift bags on the market today. Gratitude Gift Bags are a collection of high quality gift bags made of resilient fabric materials.  We know we reuse the gift bags again and again for gifts but Gratitude Gift Bags can be used for storing jewelry, shoes, cosmetics, knee highs, candles, keepsakes, and photos. I use my gift bag for storing all my reward cards in my handbag. There is easy access to the bag when I instantly need one of my reward cards in a store. All the gift bags are proudly made in the USA with high quality fabric to make them very sturdy.

unnamed-7

I also used Gratitude Gift Bags for bridal shower favors. I displayed the Gratitude Gift Bags on a table and they all looked stunning with the satin ribbon tie which closes the bag securely. Everyone was excited for the wrapping more than the gift that was inside! They come in a variety of vibrant colors, sizes, prints and patterns. Six different sizes to be exact….. gift card holder size, small, medium, tall wine, large, and extra large. The most popular use of my Gratitude Gift Bags ….. I love to store my stockings, tights and pantyhose in each separate bag. No more jumbled mess in my drawers!!  I place one pair per Gratitude Gift Bag. They protect from snags from my wooden drawers and I am very organized! Buy online at stores.gratitudegiftbags.com   You will find many other ways to use Gratitude Gift Bags.

My Eyelashes look Amazing Thanks to Eylure

ey_volume_070_pack_1ey_lengthening_080_pack_1

Tired of wasting money on expensive brands of mascara that promise longer, thicker lashes, but don’t seem to be doing their job? Then you should definitely give Eylure false eyelashes a try! I tried two different types Eylure False Eyelashes. One  is designed for length, and one is designed for volume. Both pairs of Eylure False Eyelashes worked great and also looked amazing.

IMG_0324

The eyelashes with volume are perfect for a night out and can completely transform your look, as well as the ones for length, they’re perfect for a cute daytime look and will leave people wondering how you got your eyelashes so long and perfect. Also, with the right technique, these lashes are super easy to apply and are also reusable and inexpensive with amazing quality.

 I definitely recommended Eyelure False Eyelashes if  like longer, thicker, realistic looking eyelashes. I also wouldn’t mind finding a few pairs of Eylure Eyelashes in my stocking this Christmas.  http://www.eylure.com
